i have a noob question. i'm not familiar too much with Istanbul Agop cymbals....but i'm doing farther research on them...although i got a question..it seems to me that Istanbul Agop cymbal tend to be in the more jazzier side than the Alchemy cymbals...are they da same company but just different lines...for different styles??? ssorry for my ignorance..

Quite correct. Both are made by the same company Istanbul Agop. The Alchemy Pro line was developed for louder heavier music but with the same high level of quality and hand labour as put into the various Istanbul Agop production lines.
